Developers in South Shields
South Shields stock that is not earning.
Finished South Shields units, beds for your site team, or a whole phase under one agreement — each of them a fixed monthly sum rather than a holding cost.
Three Ways We Work
What we can take on.
Unsold & Slow-Moving Units
Slow-moving completed units taken on a company let, priced for the term rather than for the first month. How this works →
Site Team Accommodation
Site team accommodation arranged and managed, so your people are housed together and the paperwork arrives monthly. How this works →
Whole Block or Phase
One agreement and one payer across a whole phase, instead of a stack of individual lettings and holding costs. How this works →
South Shields
The commercial mechanics
Unit mix matters more than unit count. Studios and three-beds behave differently, and one figure spread evenly across a mixed phase is usually wrong for half of it.
South Shields
What to expect once it starts
Whoever occupies the property does so under our agreement, not the developer's. The relationship stays with us and we deal with them.
South Shields
Is this right for you?
The owners who get most from it are the ones who tell us their constraints early: dates they need, works they will not fund, tenants they will not take. Constraints are easy to design around and awkward to discover.

Certificates, licensing and insurance
Where a council requires planning consent for a particular use, that is a question for the council and not for us to answer on their behalf. We will point an owner at the right place.
South Shields
Things we don't do
We do not chase volume for its own sake. A property taken on badly costs more than it earns.

Getting started
Send the property details and any photographs or an online link. That is usually enough for a first view on whether it is worth going further.

Straight Answers
Read this before you rely on it.
We are small. Two properties operated, no developer schemes completed, and an honest expectation that you will verify all of that rather than take it on trust. Company No. 16187542, and we will hand over what you need to check it properly. For a block or a phase, assume we will be asked for security of some kind, and assume we will agree that it is reasonable.
Nothing on this page is a valuation, a financial promotion or investment advice. Terms are specific to the scheme in front of us and are agreed in writing before either side commits.
Your Questions
South Shields: the practical questions.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What do you need from us to price a South Shields scheme?
Location, plot numbers, tenure and the service charge position, the completion date, and your expected sales window. Certificates where they exist. The more of that we have, the less hedged the answer.
How long does it take to get an answer?
The review itself is quick. What usually sets the timeline is compliance paperwork - the EPC, the electrical certificate or the gas safety record arriving - rather than anything on our side.
What condition do the South Shields units come back in?
The standard is agreed before we take them, off a schedule of condition with photographs at handover. Fair wear and tear is expected on a property that has been lived in; anything beyond that is ours to put right.
Do you buy unsold stock?
No. We take property on a lease and pay rent - we are not a cash buyer and we do not make offers on completed units. If something needs work rather than being finished, send it to us and we will see whether it fits an investor on our list.
Are you VAT registered?
Maine Property Solutions Ltd is not VAT registered, so our invoices carry no VAT. VAT on property leases depends on tenure and on whether an option to tax is in place, so take your own advice on your recovery position.
